The Great Bible 1539

   

38:1Then answered the Lorde vnto Iob out of the storme, and sayd:
38:2what is he that hydeth his mynde with folysh wordes?
38:3Gyrde vp thy loynes lyke a man, for I wyll questyon wyth the, se thou geue me a directe answere.
38:4Where wast thou, when I layde the foundacyons of the earth? Tell playnely, yf thou hast vnderstandyng.
38:5Who hath measured it, knowest thou? Or, who hath spreade the lyne vpon it?
38:6Where vpon stande the pyllers of it? Or, who layed the corner stone therof?
38:7Where wast thou, when the mornyng starres praysed me together, and all the chyldren of God reioysed triumphantly?
38:8Who shut the see wyth dores, when it brake forth as a chylde out of hys mothers wombe?
38:9When I made the cloudes to be a coueryng for it, and swadled it with the darcke?
38:10when I gaue it my commaundement, makyng dores and barres for it,
38:11saying: Hyther to shalt thou come, but no farther, & here shalt thou laye downe thy proud and hye waues.
38:12Hast thou geuen the mornynge hys charge (as sone as thou wast borne) and shewed the daye spryng hys place,
38:13that it myght take holde of the corners of the earth, and that the vngodly myght be shaken out?
38:14Theyr tokens and weapens are turned lyke claye, and sett vp agayne as the chaungyng of a garment.
38:15The vngodly shalbe disapoynted of their lyght, and the arme of the proude shalbe broken.
38:16Camest thou euer into the grounde of the see: or walkedest in the lowe corners of the depe?
38:17Haue the gates of deeth bene opened vnto the, or hast thou sene the dores of the shadowe of death?
38:18Hast thou also perceaued how broade the earth is? Yf thou hast knowledge of all thys,
38:19then shew me, where lyght dwelleth, and where darcknes is:
38:20that thou mayest brynge vs vnto theyr quarters, yf thou canst tell the waye to theyr houses.
38:21Knewest thou (afore thou wast borne) how olde thou shuldest be?
38:22Wentest thou euer into the treasuryes of the snowe, or hast thou sene the secrete places of the hayle,
38:23whych I haue prepared agaynst the tyme of trouble, agaynst the tyme of batell and warre?
38:24By what waye is the lyght parted, and into what lande breaketh the east wynde:
38:25Who deuydeth the aboundaunce of waters into ryuers, or who maketh a waye for the lyghtenyng and thonder,
38:26that it watereth & moystureth the drye and barengrounde:
38:27to make the grasse growe in places where no body dwelleth, and in the wyldernes where no man remayneth?
38:28Who is the father of rayne? Or who hath begotten the droppes of dewe?
38:29Out of whose wombe came the yse? Who hath gendred the coldnes of the ayre?
38:30that the waters are as harde as stones, and lye congeled aboue the depe.
38:31Wylt thou hyndre the swete influences of the .vij. starres? Or art thou able to breke the circle of heauen?
38:32Canst thou brynge forth the mornynge starre or the euenynge starre at conuenient tyme, & conueye them home agayne?
38:33Knowest thou the course of heauen, that thou mayest set vp the ordinaunce therof vpon the erth?
38:34Moreouer, canst thou lyft vp thy voyce to the cloudes, that they maye poore downe a greate rayne vpon the?
38:35Canst thou thondre also that they maye go theyr waye, and be obedient vnto the, sayeng: Lo here are we?
38:36Who geueth sure wysdome or stedfast vnderstandynge?
38:37who nombreth the cloudes in wysdome? who stylleth the vehement waters of the heauen?
38:38who turneth the clottes to dust, & then to be clottes agayne?
38:39Wylt thou hunt the praye from the lyon, or fede hys whelpes
38:40lying in theyr dennes, and lurkyng in theyr couches?
38:41who prouideth meate for the rauen, when hys yonge ones crye vnto God, and fle aboute for lack of meate?

The Great Bible 1539

The Great Bible of 1539 was the first authorized edition of the Bible in English, authorized by King Henry VIII of England to be read aloud in the church services of the Church of England. The Great Bible was prepared by Myles Coverdale, working under commission of Thomas, Lord Cromwell, Secretary to Henry VIII and Vicar General. In 1538, Cromwell directed the clergy to provide "one book of the bible of the largest volume in English, and the same set up in some convenient place within the said church that ye have care of, whereas your parishioners may most commodiously resort to the same and read it."
